Regardless it is a step in a new direction that eventually will gather power.A point of interest is this. The British said that they will agree NOT to object and only obstain as long as Palestine promises not to take Israel to court for war crimes. This by itself is very interesting and begs the following.1/ If Israel has done nothing wrong and are not guilty of any war crimes then why would the British have such demands?2/ Unless they are indeed guilty of war crimes that will eventually implicate the British themselves as part of these crimes.In reality the British have shot themselves in the foot and are not running scared.They clearly realise that tables are turning and re begging for some sort of negotiations.
